“Rachel is a wonderful dog walker! She is super responsible, communicative, and flexible. Most importantly, she has kept our 7-month-old puppy happy and well-exercised when we are gone for long days. I recommend Rachel to anyone looking for loving and trustworthy pet care!”
About: I’ve had dogs since I was 12 and have experience with all kinds of personalities and ages, from puppies to senior dogs with medical needs. I currently have a senior dog myself, so I’m very patient, attentive, and comfortable with extra care routines. Friends and family always count on me first for pet sitting because I genuinely love animals and treat every pet like my own. I also have experience caring for cats and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. My schedule is extremely flexible, so I’m able to accommodate all kinds of pet care needs including walks, drop-ins, overnight stays, puppy care, and senior pets who need extra attention. I make sure pets feel comfortable by following their normal routine as closely as possible. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or a client’s home, they’ll get plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and care throughout the day.

“Lima did a great job taking caring of Riley and bringing him for his walks while I was at work. She sent me videos and photo updates and left rover cards both days. I really appreciated all of her help and Riley enjoyed the extra love he needed during the day”
“Brittany is INCREDIBLE! I have a very energetic, high strung, unneutered shepherd who is not the easiest dog to find a walker for. He absolutely loves Brittany and she goes above and beyond for him constantly. She is experienced with shepherds, reactive dogs, and high energy breeds and I feel very comfortable having her care for my dog. She always goes the extra mile by giving him fresh water, working on training with him to support what I’m working on with him, and is firm but loving with him. She handles him so well and he absolutely adores her. I can’t recommend her enough! Brittany has been walking my dog for months, is consistently reliable, has great availability, and excellent communication. She is so trustworthy and a pleasure to work with!”
About: I have had pets since I was a baby. I had two rabbits who I took care of during my childhood, such as feeding and brushing. When I was around 10 years old we adopted my current dog, who I walk and play with frequently. My family often petsits other animals as well, mostly dogs. I have helped with catering to these dogs needs since I was 9 and have always loved getting the opportunity to take care of them! These experiences have taught me the responsibility necessary to actually take care of animals. I am available to pet sit the entire week except on Mondays. I am a very flexible person and do not mind cancellations or late notices. I have a large yard my dog loves to play in, along with The Canal Trail as a 2 minute walk away from my house. I often take toys from our large toy box to go out into the yard and play with him.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
